		<p>Tooltip replaces native tooltips, making them themable as well as allowing various customizations:</p>

		<ul>
			<li>Display other content than just the title, like inline footnotes or extra content retrieved via Ajax.</li>
			<li>Customize the positioning, e.g., to center the tooltip above elements.</li>
			<li>Add extra styling to customize the appearance, for warning or error fields.</li>
		</ul>

		<p>A fade animation is used by default to show and hide the tooltip, making the appearance a bit more organic, compared to just toggling the visiblity. This can be customized with the <a href="#option-show"><code>show</code></a> and <a href="#option-hide"><code>hide</code></a> options.</p>

		<p>The <a href="#option-items"><code>items</code></a> and <a href="#option-content"><code>content</code></a> options need to stay in-sync. If you change one of them, you need to change the other.</p>
